Without a word of a lie, the live 2 disc version of Roger Waters‘ The Wall was the first CD I ever bought, and as much as I kind of loathe concerts at MSG, I’m feeling an unusually strong desire to see this show. Tickets for 24 of the upcoming shows on The Wall tour (including MSG, IZOD Center and Nassau Coliseum) go on American Express presale starting today (Monday, May 3) at 10AM. For those of you in and around New York, here are the shows that are nearby:

If you’re not buying, you may want to try your luck at winning the “Epic Roger Waters Experience” from Live Nation. You can enter that contest over here. If you don’t have an American Express card, the RogerWaters.com presale starts May 5, the iTunes presale starts May 6 and the public on sale begins May 10.

PS Frankly, I would not be surprised to see more dates added, especially at MSG, there is a big gap.
